Bobby Kennedy To
Visit Caltech June 8
BY ANDY BEVERIDGE
Robert F. Kennedy, Attorney
General of the United States,
will visit Caltech Monday, June
8. Kennedy will make at least
two appearances in two different
scheduled programs. At 4 p.m.
he will participate in an informal
question and answer session with
the undergraduates. In the evening R.F.,K. will deliver an address in Beckman at 8:30.
The 4:00 program will be conducted by the YMCA and will
be patterned after similar events
in the past. Kennedy will kick
off the period with a ten minute
talk, then will field questions
posed by the students in the
audience. Professor Rodman W.
Paul, who arranged for Kennedy's visit, said that the Attorney
General has conducted this type
of program in many colleges in
the U.S. and really enjoys it. It
is hoped that this will be primarily for students.
Beckman Address
The address at night in Beckman will be much more formal,
with Kennedy giving a regular
speech. Because of the overwhelming number of people who
wanted tickets, chairs will be
set up outside with loudspeakers to pipe the talk from the
auditorium. R.F.K. probably will

Gary Scott was awarded $50
as first place winner of the 53rd
annual Conger Peace Oration
contest held in Winnett Lounge
May 20. His speech was titled
"Nationalism and Peace: The Incompatibles."
Second place winner was Tom
Latham, who received $25 for
his speech "The Impact of Population Growth upon World Stability."
Judges for the contest were
Dr. Beach Langston, Associate
Professor of English; Dr. Robert
P. Sharp, Chairman of the Division of Geological Sciences; and
Mrs. Grace Gertmenian, President of the Board of Westridge
School.
This contest, an annual event
at Caltech since 1912, was established through the generosity of
the Rev. Everett L. Conger for
the development of concern for
world and industrial peace and
for the promotion of interest in
public speaking.
personally address this group
shortly either before or after the
major speech. Besides this, if
any seats in Beckman are not
taken before the speech begins,
anyone waiting outside will be
able to occupy them. If any tickets are not going to be used they
should be turned into the bookstore, so someone who wants to
go will have a seat.
In a two-hour program yesterday at Tournament Park, honor
awards and sports awards for
the school year were presented
to the lucky recipients. Blacker
took the Snake and Dabney the
Varsity Rating trophy, while
Dabney's John Eyler became
Frosh of the Year.
The first awards, honor keys
and certificates, were presented
by Randy Cassada, ASCIT President. Next Emcee Dr. Huttenback presented the Goldsworthy
Interhouse Scholastic Achievement (Snake) Trophy to the
House with the highest overall
GPA, Blacker. Blacker retains
the trophy from last year., Paul
Swatek then announced the
"most well-rounded," Tau Beta

Eyler.
Sports Awards
Beginning the sports awards
was Coach Preisler, giving away
the Vesper Basketball Trophy to
a member of the varsity squad
who demonstrated sportsmanship, improvement, moral influence, and scholarship (as determined by a vote of varsity players): Volker Vogt. Also announced were next year's cocaptains, Dennis McCreary and
Doug Holford. Coach Jensen an-

Then Coach Emery announced
that the members of the varsity
swimming team had selected
Ted Jenkins as winner of the
Campbell Swimming Trophy, on
the basis of sportsmanship, ability, and improvement. Jenkins
will also be captain next year.
Doug Gage, winner of the Goldsworthy Track Trophy, for sportsmanship, team spirit, and proficiency (ability and effort) as
decided by the varsity team; and
Ken Brown, last year's winner
and present team captain, were
announced by Coach LaBrucherie.
Tennis
The winner of the Scott Tennis Tournament, open to members of the varsity and frosh
squads and other eligibles, was
then revealed by Coach Lamb to
be John Hoshor.

Supports Humanities Research Trotter Talks
0n Protestants
The Old Dominion Foundation
has given Caltech $500,000 for
the support of research in the
humanities, Dr. DuBridge announced last week. The grant
will establish an endowment
fund whose income will be used
to provide humanities professors
with paid leaves of absence for
study at other institutions both
here and abroad.
"The endowment meets a very
special need at Caltech," DuBridge said. "Our humanities division is devoted primarily to
teaching: but the best teachers
in the humanities, as in other
fields, are as a rule deeply committed to scholarly research. To
attract and hold such teachers
we must encourage and reward
research, and that is exactly
what Old Dominion Foundation
is helping us to do."
Strong Humanities
DuBridge pointed out that the
foundation's grant would help to
sustain the strong current of interest in the humanities among
both students and faculty at Caltech. "The Institute pioneered
in emphasizing the importance
of the humanities in technical
education," he said. "As early as
1921 it established the requirement that at least twenty-five
per cent of every undergraduate's classroom time be spent in
the study of E'nglish, history,
philosophy, economics, and languages."
Dr. Hallett D. Smith, chairman
of the humanities division, hailed
the grant as "an important,
imaginative contribution." He
said, "It acknowledges the fact
that our students have an extraordinary interest in and need for
humanistic subjects; it asserts
that they should have teachers
of the highest calibre; and it
greatly enhances Caltech's ability to provide such teachers."
Old Dominion Foundation was
established in 1941 by Paul MelIon of Upperville, Virginia. It
has granted approximately $65
million for studies in various
fields inclUding the humanities
and liberal education, the arts,
mental health, and conservation.
Frosh Honor'
Sections open
For Enrolling
Individual sophomore honor
sections in each of the three
subjects, Ma 2, Ph 2, and H 2,
for which provision has been
made by the faculty, will again
be available in 1964-65.
Eligible members of this year's
freshman class may register for
any or all honor sections., They
must preregister, as described
below, before the end of this
term (June 13).
To be eligible, a student must
have received an overall GPA
of 3.0 in the freshman year, must
have an average grade of 3.3 or
better in the prior course in the
field of the honor section (for
example, 3.3 or better in Ma 1
abc for the math honor section),
and must have the permission
of the instructor who is to teach
the honor section.
It is essential that all freshmen who wish to be considered
for honor section enrollment indicate their intention on a form
available at the Registrar's Office,
119 Throop, before June 13.
Failure to file the form on time
will cancel eligibility.
In an attempt to define Liberal
Protestantism, Dr. Thomas Trotter, Dean of Claremont School
of Theology, wound up discussing nearly all phases in the
recent development of Christian
thought. This was the final talk
of the Y Religions of America
Series, held last Tuesday in Winnett Clubroom 1. Trotter made
clear some of the fuzzy distinctions between different schools,
although he began by saying
that nobody is sure what Liberal
Protestantism is.
Trotter said that both Liberal
and Conservative movements
grew out of the claSh which
came at the turn of the century
between the experiential religion
of the frontier and the intellectual, rational approach sparked by
the advance of science. Liberalism fused these ideas. Liberals
used scientific methodology, conducted vast historical stUdies,
challenged the Bible, and sought
reasons for the shape of the
Christian faith. Conservatives,
on the other hand, resisted science and selected articles of dogmatic Christian faith. Orthodoxy
avoided the entire problem by
saying faith is what the church
says it is. These were the views
prevalent in the 20's and 30's.
P-N Junction
Recently these movements
have fused into what is called
Neo-orthodoxy, influenced by
eXistentialism. Still more recently people like Dr. Hamilton, this
year's visiting theologian, have
formed what might be called a
post - Neo - orthodox movement.
These men are seeking to dis(Continued on page 4)

Stamp Collecting in Europe
---- ---------
Tickets
An unhappy situation, one in which some feelings are more
bitter than warranted, has arisen with regard to the distribution of tickets to Kennedy's Beckman address. Briefly, the
source of discontent is that, al though undergraduates hold 280
tickets, 90 of those are in i:3lacker hands, 56 in Ricketts, 50 in
Page, 38 in Lloyd, and 30 in Dabney, while Fleming has only
J 4 and Ruddock only 2.
(The rest of the tickets, by the way,
were distributed 200 to grad students, 250 to faculty, 50 to
employees, J 00 to Associates and the President's office, 50 to
Trustees, 30 to the press, etc.) The basic cause of this situation was the availability of tickets in the bookstore before everybody had received announcements of the speech. The mob
scene in the bookstore and the "unexpected great appeal" of
Kennedy are probably secondary effects. Rumor that tickets
were getting scarce made them go even faster.
Although the distribution by Houses is quite unequitable,
no one seems to be worried except Ruddock (understandably
enough). To alleviate the discontent, we offer these appeals:
Make the most of the afternoon talk on the Athenaeum lawn,
where asking pertinent questions can be at least as valuable
as hearing an address. Those of you with tickets: don't let
them go to waste, not when 5000 other people are clamoring
for seats. More important, undergraduates with unused tickets
should give them to other undergrads, keeping the address for
the benefit of the academic community, not someone else.
The fair solution seems to be not a complete or partial
redistribution of tickets - since that would increase the number of unhappy people - but a promise (such as Drs. Paul
and Munger, who are in charge, have given) to give a satisfactory number of extra tickets, which will be available from
various sources, to Fleming and Ruddock. And for the future,
we bel ieve a much better method for undergrads is signing up
in the Houses (after sufficient notice), with an equal or proportionate number of tickets for each House to be distributed
within the House by chance.

'. More on Calculators
~-
Action has been taken on the calculator controversy since
our first editorial many weeks ago. There seems to be a reasonable chance for the physics department to provide calculators to undergraduates. The problem has now arisen of where
the machines are to be placed. The BOD suggested a central
place while the IHe voted 4-3 to place them in the separate
houses.
The Tech bel ieves that the advantages of putting all of
the machines in a centrol location outweighs the natural convenience of a calculator in every House. The machines would
have more efficient use if they were in one place, thus eliminating the problem of one House's machine being unused while
someone in another House is in need of one. The Houses may
not want to assume full financial responsibility for the repairs
that might be needed. The danger of such reluctance causing
a House to restrict the use of or abandon one of the machines
would be avoided by a central calculator room.
Because the Institute provides the grad students with calculators free, the Tech urges the Institute to assume the financial responsibility for the machines. To provide for proper
care of the machines, they might be kept in a locked room with
keys issued only to those who have demonstrated their ability
to operate calculators.
We repeat - let's calculate.

Letters
Cricket Rules Inaccurate
Editors:
Although I have become used
to prevailing attitudes, it was
with some anguish that I read
your article "Game of Cricket
Gives Jolly Good Time" in last
week's Tech. A venerable game
of world renown, it in no way
deserves the mockery implicit
in your glib rendering, which
degrades a fascinatingly intricate
and infinitely subtle sport of unsurpassed quality.
Cricket is not ornamental: its
ostentation is a mere aura of
quaintness projected by the superficiality of the ignorant. I
hesitate to call your attention to
three errors in a single para-
graph which, corrected, should
read: Since there are eleven
cricketers on each team, the
"innings" (always plural) ends
when ten wickets have fallen,
one for each batsman excepting
the last, who cannot be "out."
Vulgarity, more's the pity, is
frequently forced to understand
true excellence in terms which
have a ring of the pleasingly
odd, the quaint, the old-fashioned, the picturesque.
Yours sincerely,
Tom Greenfield

Weis Reviews Travels On Continent
BY JOE WEIS
(Editors' note: This is the last
of the reports written by recipients of Junior Travel Prizes for
last summer.)
As the airplane touched down
at Glasgow airport, I was both
expectant and apprehensive
about my first experiences on
another continent which were
soon to come. However, the apprehensiveness quickly passed
as I almost immediately began
to get into the spirit of Scotland.
It was a perfect Scotch morning
- a light rain was falling. The
bus ride from the airport into
the city past farmers doing their
morning chores and through
quiet villages of identical flats
gave me a perfect introduction
to the Scotch countryside ..
Glasgow Rush
Soon I was caught up in the
bustle of Glasgow at noontime
with its crowded narrow streets
and young men with clicking,
steel-plated heels. After a lunch
of "shepherd's pie," I made my
first of many visits to gothic
cathedrals (in this case the Glasgow Cathedral) and then left for
Edinburgh.
Nowhere else in Europe except perhaps Salzburg, is there
as beautiful a combination of
the medieval and the modern as
there is in Edinburgh. From the
Princes Street Gardens in the
center of the city one can turn
one way and be awed by the
castle which towers over the
park, and turn the other way
and see the exclusive Princes
Street shops. While watching
folk dancing in the Park the first
evening I ran into fellow Techman Terry Mast. I was quite
surprised but I soon became
used to such occurrences as I
again accidentally met him in
the improbable places of the
London and Paris subways. After two days in Edinburgh I almost had the Scotch weather
psyched out - the change from
SUn to hard showers comes so
fast one must constantly watch
the clouds and be fast with the
rain coat.
English Playboy
After Edinburgh, I toured
southward through the Lake District to London. Then after some
side trips, a few days of the
"play a night" routine in London, and several English high
teas, I left for Copenhagen.
I had arranged for a visit to
the Danish Postal Museum and
postage stamp printing plant
since my rather unusual travel
prize project was to study postage stamp printing. This was
a logical project for me because
I've been collecting stamps for
over ten years and Europe was
the best place to study stamp
printing since the best and most
diverse work is done there.
As a major sub-project I had
also proposed to visit physics
research institutions in E!urope
- also a logical project for a
physics snake. I'll mention more
about Europe's physics later..
Stamp Muse'um
The director of the Danish
Postal Museum gave me a tour
of the museum where I saw for
the first time exhibits of ancient
postman costumes, old post wagons and boxes, and interiors of
old post offices. Exhibits like
these are almost non-existent in
the U.s. but standard in Europe.
The next day I was introduced
to the director of the stamp
printing plant and given an extensive tour.
The Danish plant formed quite
a contrast to the U.S. Bureau of
Printing and Engraving which
I had visited before leaving the
Unied States. The Danish plant

Roger Card and Frank Rhame

Bill Weber and Jeff Wise of
Ruddock in the final Interhouse
tennis match on Monday.
In so doing, they won a fifth
place in the tournament for
Fleming and a tie with second
place Ruddock for the Interhouse trophy, in a race which
was in doubt, from the first pitch
of softball last fall, until Card and
Rhame held serve in the fourth
game of their climactic match
with Ruddock to take a 3-1 lead.
At this point the Fleming doubles
team clinched a second place

cheer from the Fleming crowd,
which realized that the necessary points for the trophy were
Under the leadership of Dick
Van Kirk, Keith Jensen, and
Harry Baldwin, the unit Bad
Guys defeated the Caltech varsity football team of 1964, last
Friday afternoon at TeePee.
Despite losing The Game, the
varsity made an excellent showing in what proved to be a fine
chance for Coach Bert LaBrucherie to take a good look at his
new squad. The score of the
game was 14-8, and it was tight
all the way.
First Half
The first half was controlled
by the alumni, who put up a
brilliant defense and a tricky
but not really devastating offense. Time after time, varsity
runners were stopped with only
short - and often negative yardage. Charging linemen were
able to hold the passing game
in check most of the time, and
when needed the secondary was
always there just to make sure.
Thus, the varsity was held to
practically Zot.
Meanwhile, Van Kirk was
able to run freely, both to the
inside and the outside. His fine
running style was indicated by
more impressive jumping, twisting, leaping, and spinning moves
than Caltech has seen since 1957
when he last graced our field.
When desirable he was able to
hand off to the other backs,
notably Bob Liebermann, Bob
Christie, and Eid Kline, all of
whom ran with speed and power.
The varsity defensive secondary
covered its territory fairly well,
and few passes were thrown by
Van Kirk, since the running
game was going so well. The
alumni were only able to score
once, however.
Third! Quarter
The third quarter was by far
the most impressive. Whatever
Uncle Bert said to his boys must
have been worth something as
the varsity was able not only to
pull itself together, but take
charge as well to start off the
second half. Everything started
going right for the Beavers in a
period which saw Steve Hall

complete four of his five passes.
The period got started with an
alumni drive which was halted
when one of Van Kirk's passes
was easily picked off by the
secondary. The varsity started
to move but was unable to keep
it up and punted deep into alumni territory. The alumni were
able to move this time and on
third down the second interception off Van Kirk set up a varsity drive. Van Kirk left the field
calmly, throwing his helmet no
more than 23 feet. The action
then began and in the span of
about three minutes and sixty
yards, Hall completed three
passes. With first and goal Hall
teamed up with Ken Evans to
work the play to perfection, and
Evans scampered in unmolested.
This tied the game and the extra point was made off a pass to
Chuck McQuillan.
Protecting a two point lead,
the varsity was able to concentrate on defense., Things started
to look really bad when Keith

The Good Get Reward Again;
Fleming Takes Lloyd, 24 - 19
Last Sunday afternoon the
final chapter was written for this
season on the immortal pages
of the Discobulus Book. Once
again Fleming proved victorious,
as has been the case throughout
most of the past season. In the
final standing Fleming has a
total of 31 points, exactly equal
to sum of the second and third
place Houses, Ruddock with 18
and Blacker with 13. (Interesting aside: Blacker finished the
season with 3 points due to a
generously enforced forfeit and
4 more points due to losses,
which, by the way, is more than
any of the other Houses gained
from losses.)
Carbon Copy Game
The football game Sunday between Lloyd and Fleming proved
to be almost a carbon copy of a
game between the same two
Houses last term.. Both Houses
were quite capable of scoring
points, and proceeded to do so.
The first half ended with the
score 13-12, Lloyd. Early in the
second half Fleming's forces
were dealt a crippling blow when
Gentle Chuck McQuillan (affectionately known as The Lamb
to his House-mates) was viciously attacked and maimed by several Lloyd players. The indignant players of The Big Red
Kloke Raiders, aroused by this
display of physical violence,
charged forward to win this one
for Chuckie. As always here in
the Happy Hunting Ground, the
good were rewarded, and Fleming won 24-19.
Christie's passing in the first
half was a little less than pinpoint, but he settled down in
the second half. Despite the absence of six of Fleming's usual
starters due to illness, injury,
and the ever-present duty to
admiring womanhood which con·
stantly afflicts the members of
the Good House, the depth of
never-ending talent of the Big
Red proved too much for Lloyd.
Crabtree's Marauders played
their usual flashy game, dominated by the little brown book
in Gillespie's back pocket, and
the unstoppable Howenstine. But
the telling factor in the victory
by the House for Lonely Athletes was the new talent brought
up from the farm clubs, Vitz,
Yeagley, and Vinsonhaler.

some classy faking while going
around right end to gain five.
He sent one charging lineman
flying past him with a neat hip
fake. The next two plays got
nowhere, however, since the
varsity dug in.
Fourth Quarter
The Beavers took over the ball,
were unable to move it, and
punted. The fourth quarter began with the ball in alumni
hands. Jensen threw another sixty-yard bomb to the varsity two.
The alumni scored easily from
there, picking up the extra point.
The score remained 14-8 for the
remainder of the game, which
ended with the varsity in possession of the alumni 42, and with
Hal Musselman looking all over
for the gun which had cleverly
been stolen by an unknown Page
House member.
Standing out like a sore thumb
in the game was Steve Hall, who
may be the first good passing
QB since Van Kirk. Chuck McQuillan all but wrapped up a
sure starting post for next season
with fine hands at end. Lee
Myers and Andy Kampe played
very well in the line, with Kampe
providing some real excitement
in the third period when he
smeared Van Kirk (before he
had a chance to figure out what
was happening) for a six-yard
loss. Bob Scott and Ken Evans
both ran well, but Barry Dinius
was sorely missed.
A crowd of around one hundred saw the game and seemed
to be quite enthusiastic. Coach
LaBrucherie played excellent
defensive football, diagnosing
plays and advising his players
the very moment he could overhear them in the opponents' huddle. Everyone seemed to enjoy
the game, except Stan Sleeve
who was knocked cold when
Jensen was forced out of bounds
and into his lap in the fourth
period.
Cricket Win
Over UCLA
Last Sunday as the light was
beginning to fade and the smog
was at last receding, the Caltech
Cricket Club concluded an undefeated season by edging U.C.
L.A. in a dramatic and tense contest, 110-103., The match commenced at 1:15 p.m. Huttenback
lost the toss and for the initial
time this year Tech had to bat
first. U.C.L.A. struck early as
Mugambe was dismissed for a
duck (0). Rispin quickly followed him to the sidelines with
four runs to his credit. But
worse was yet to come; Dave
Clough, the team's leading batsman, mischit a bad ball and was
caught for two runs.
Caltech was now in the dismal
position of having three wickets
down for only seven runs. Fortunately Richard Wade and Inder Cheema were able to stabilize the situation as they put on
36 runs for the next wicket.
Once more the position collapsed, however, as Caltech went
from 43 for three wickets to 60
for seven wickets in the space
of a few minutes. Again disaster
was avoided as the tail of the
batting order batted courageously to post a final total of 110
runs.
Lloyd won the tournament
with 49 points to 48 for Ruddock,
while Blacker finished a strong
third with 43. The decisive
matches occurred on Thursday
and Friday, as Dave Lischinsky
defeated Roger Leezer 5-3 to win
first singles and give Ruddock
a shot at first place for the
trophy, only to have the chance
taken away the next day by the
Lloyd doubles team of Bill Pence
and Volker Vogt, who came back
from a series of mediocre performances to win four games
from Weber and Wise, by virtue
of a strong, forcing net game.
Seurvs Take
Crew Again
The Ricketts House crew team
regained the Acme Perpetual
Trophy last Friday night by defeating Ruddock to close out
their undefeated season. Both
lines were sloppy with Ruddock
having three alternates and
Ricketts having one. Ricketts'
time was 25.7 with two alternates, the second being timed
by accident. The Ruddock time
was 28.3. Ron Constable, Ricketts captain, was happy with the
time shown by his youthful team
and hopes for a sub-twenty-second line next season.

The U.C.L.A. innings started
placidly enough and it looked
like the match was heading towards another dismal draw. Suddenly Gjestland and Van Horne
started to attack the bowling
and with twenty minutes to go,
U.C.L.A. needed but ten runs to
win with three wickets in hand.
At this point Clough developed
complete mastery over the batsmen and brought the match to a
conclusion with U.C.L.A. still
eight runs short of victory.

BY THE OL' BOOZER
BY J. K. EVANS
Today we will discuss dynamite, which is rather an explosive subject. There are factions
which feel that subjects with
such impact should be kept under cover and not exposed to
heat, but these people are far
too cautious. Dynamite is actually pretty safe stuff. Also, it is
even better than bad breath for
keeping people away.
Dynamite was invented in 5403
B.C. by one Irving Ugg. Unfortunately there was a slight accident and Irving and his formula were distributed over
rather a wide area in a thin uniform layer. The formula was
rediscovered at various intervals
throughout the history of civilization - once in Pompeii, once
at Krakatoa. and once at Sam's
General Alchemist and Chemical
Shop - but on each occasion a
sad occurrence resulted in loss
of the formula.
Noble Nobel
Finally a fellow named Nohel
left the formula in the other
room while he concocted his
original batch, and since the God
of Explosions couldn't get Nobel
and the formula at the same
time, he didn't bother. So the
world has dynamite.
The principal current use of
dynamite is making artificial
earthquakes for geophysicists to
listen to. Of course a few misguided souls still try to mine
coal, build roads, or murder
wives with the stuff, but these
are wrong thinkers and are fading into the minority. One enter·
prising soul has a girl friend
who is terrified of thunder and
earthquakes. Whenever he goes
to visit her, he leaves a timefused charge in the back yard.
Twitch Flinch
We will close with the sad
story of Simeon Flinch, a goodhearted lad who worked in his
father's general store in the
Feenamint Mountains of Nevada. Simeon was a lover of confections. One day he was overjoyed to discover several cases
of long round taffy sticks in the
storeroom. Shouting with glee,
Simeon fell to. Soft, chewy, flavorful - the taffy was really excellent.
Unfortunately, Simeon was
wearing braces, and in his ecstasy of mastication, he ground
his jaws together with such violence that he struck a spark.
The explosion was seen for seven miles; three of Simeon's teeth
were recovered from the undercarriage of a passing stratojet.
Now, everyone in Flinch's General Store wears brass braces.
No sparks.
After a two-year sabbatical
leave, during which the 01' Boozer toured innumerable faraway,
exotic lands in search of recipes
to titillate his gentle readers, he
returns only to find the home
ground a source of two exciting
concoctions. The first, guaranteed to go down easy, but hit
hard, was revived by John Andelin.

1 fifth cheap white wine (Chab·

Actually I spent only about
15 % of my time doing things
directly related to my project.
It is the purpose of the travel
prize to allow the winners to
experience other countries with·
out any restrictions upon them
but with their project as one
focus to their travels. Consequently, I spent many days visiting museums, galleries, cathedrals, historic monuments and
plays, and just wandering about
cities.
The small countries which I
was interested in philatelically
turned out to be some of the
most interesting ones in Europe.
San Marino showed how the sale
of stamps and tourism could be
pushed to the extreme as national "industries." In Monaco
I celebrated my twenty-first
birthday (this was appropriate
since people under 21 are not
permitted in the gaming rooms
of the Monte Carlo or other
casinos). Andorra was my favorite, however. It now thrives on
tourists but one can see evidences of its past livelihood the production of cigarettes with
suhsequent smuggling into Spain
and France. I enjoyed Andorra's
unmatched low prices, beautiful
Pyrenean scenery, and the
friendship of the head of her
tourist office.
Yugoslavia, however, was the
most interesting country I visited. I began my visit with three
days on the Dalmatian coast
(which has the finest sun and sea
in Europe) and thence turned inland to Bosnia and Hercegovina
where the eastern heritage and
poverty of Yugoslavia are most
evident.
I enjoyed some barely teen-age
boys who were playing there for
the only basketball game I had
during the summer. I hitched a
ride in a truck on the cobbled
"freeway" from Belgrade to Zagreb and then left the friendly
country of Yugoslavia for Austria.
Fezzes and Donkeys
Mostar was the only place in
Europe where I was looked at
curiously as some obviously
strange phenomenon. After seeing many mosques, fezzes, and
donkeys, I left Mostar and Sarajevo and went to Belgrade. Here
I was confronted by the Cyrillic
script as well as the Serbo-Croatian language - but I got along
fine as one always does in Europe. Belgrade is very modern
but definitely Yugoslavian rather
than, say, English. Two events
made my visit there especially
memorable. The first was Khrushchev's visit and the moderately warm welcome he was given
as he entered the city with Tito.
The second and more important
event was playing basketball
there. I had stumbled onto some
outdoor courts before in strange
places behind the Vatican
Museum (this one was probably
for the Pope) and in the middle
of the fifth century part of Dubrovnik - so I wasn't too surprised to find about ten courts
inside the ruins of Belgrade's
ancient Kalemegdan fortress.
Most of the time I traveled on
my Eurailpass, which used to
give one three months unlimited
rail travel in any of the Western
bloc countries for $180. It is in·
finitely convenient and fairly
economical but after talking to
a lot of other traveling young
people in Europe I decided that
hitchhiking is the best way to
get to know the country. I usually stayed in hostels and I will
"ditto" all the good things Dick
Burgess said about them.
One of the greatest benefits of
the trip to me was its manyfold
enhancement of my appreciation
of the arts - especially the plas·
tic ones. For example, it is impossible to go to Rome without
learning something about Bernini or to Barcelona without encountering the exuberant and
audacious "Neo-Gothic" buildings
of Antoni Gaudi. Thus the Junior
Travel Prize gave me an unmatchable introduction to the
people, culture, and history of
Europe and a most exciting summer.
